Series: The Thornton Mystery Series, Book A Thornton Mystery If you are looking for a new suspense book to read this fall, I recommend this entire series of books. This book was a quick read for me, and I also really enjoyed the book. I also loved that this book had plot elements like a cult because it gives a new layer to the book and makes it come to life as I read. The author did a great job of keeping me guessing as to what was going to happen as I was reading. I had just enough to keep me reading but not so much that I didn’t want to keep reading. This book had just the right amount of suspense for me. I wasn’t lost as I was reading this book, so you don’t have to read them in order if the ones before this don’t interest you. This is the third book in the series and the first one I have read. I believe this is the first book I have read by this author, and I will add this author and series to my list of books to check out in the future. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.
